As the Detroit Tigers prepare to come home to Detroit for Games 3, 4 and 5 against the San Francisco Giants, we want to know what songs you listen to in order to get in the mood for some baseball.
With Game 1 behind us (and erased from our memories), it's time to get excited again about being in the 2012 World Series. And what better way to do that than to turn up the volume on your stereo or online playlist. But what is it that you're listening to?

Tell us your favorites in the comments below and we'll string together a playlist on Spotify to share with everyone. And if you need a playlist immediately, check out the ones The Huffington Post put together for the Tigers and the Giants.

With one simple phone call, a young man’s life has been changed forever. For 23-year-old Anthony Bass, that moment is today, as the San Diego Padres have called up Bass to make his first major league start at 8:40 p.m. tonight against the Colorado Rockies. Bass is a native of Trenton and pitched for the Trojans while in high school. After graduating from high school, he played college baseball at Wayne State, where he was selected as an All-American his junior year in 2008.
